Google Translate app for Android can take a photo of text to translate. Now I know what that warning sticker on the ROPS says:

1, Please drive with lobbs and cabin installed correctly. 2, Robbs and cabin, please do not remodel. 3, Please do not use those damaged. 4, When the tractor falls please do not jump out of the seat firmly the handle. 5, Please be sure to tighten the seatbelts, please adjust to an easy condition. 6, Please use genuine parts for the seat belt 7. Please do not tighten the seat belt when knocking down the lobbs.

Glad that cleared up that mystery!:laughing::confused:

6 and going to a high of 28 mainly sunny. Wind NNE 9 mph. A nice spring day.

The only coon relocation program that works is to give them a 1/4" hole in their forehead and bury them about 4' deep. IF you do that, never talk about it. It is also called SSS. (shoot, shovel and shut-up)

I am in the process of teaching one of the cats to jump high. So far I have got her up to 52" straight up the wall. I also have her jumping over a 40" door (dutch door) without breaking stride. Laser point thermometers have other uses besides a thermometer.

Andrew;
tractor/car 'breakers' here are called wreckers/recyclers.

All you people getting that spring snow storm stay safe. Even if it means getting a motel room. There is nothing outside in a snowstorm that is worth your life.

Good Morning!!!! 50F @ 6:30AM. Periods of rain. Thunder possible. High 56F. Winds SE at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 100%.

Just shy of an inch of rain fell yesterday evening, and another 0.6" since midnight. Looks like it'll taper off, becoming on and off showers the rest of the day.

No word of new flooding in Santa Barbara/Ventura counties that were ravaged by the Thomas fire. Let's hope no news is good news.

Hope those that have to be out in the Nor'Easter take it easy in the snow. A day or two delay could make for a much more pleasant trip.

You've made a remarkable recovery in heart health, Don. Congratulations!

I bet you feel like a kid on Christmas with that new tractor, Andrew! Have fun, but just remember it's not a toy. And get a seat belt installed in that thing ASAP!

Sounds like that 'coon is turning into a real pain in the neck, Wng. Maybe it's time for a Hav'a'Heart trip?

More unrewarded kicking yesterday, but a post on an old bike forum turned up a few things that I'll try today. Other than that, it's just hunker down and enjoy the music of rain on the roof.

Happy Hump Day folks!

coon relocation, yup, I just emailed my fireman neighbor who is well armed and gave him permission to blast any
critters in my gardens. His angle is best, right into my woods and swamp. My angle is not so good, though with an air gun
it would be fine. I have neighbors within a mile I'd like to stay friendly with.

That reminds me to get the guns out and go over them. Me a Quaker with guns, it's just the
incongruities of life...sometimes you have to be flexible to be sensible...and like an Unfriendly Fire is taught to new Firemen as
a fire in the wrong place, like friendly in your fireplace and unfriendly when the spark lands on your newspaper pile nearby.
Friendly rabbit is the one in my lawn. Unfriendly rabbit is the one who digs under my electric fence.
Unfriendly rabbits need to be educated, not necessarily executed. At least by me.
I'll give my neighbor full leeway. He's a hunter, he knows what to do.

Now a woodchuck/groundhog? I have no love for those destructive animals. I'd go for the .22 first...

It's a little warmer this morning 27*, yesterday was a another nice day. A chance of snow showers this morning but some sun in the afternoon. With a high in the 40's and a light breeze. Looks like a bigger storm Friday night into Saturday.

Making the weekly trip to town today.

Hope everyone stays safe.
CWB.

Good morning everyone.

A cloudy day here. Temperature ~freezing. Winds 5 - 10mph. I will be surprised if I see any snow tonight/tomorrow with this pending coastal. I have enough snow on the ground.

Don- Congratulations on becoming med free. It's really hard work changing one's lifestyle and diet in order to get off medications. I got the prednisone completely out of my system (surprising all my docs); if I did what you are doing I could probably get off all my meds including the insulin according to one of my docs. You are a good example for me. Thanks.

LS- The surgeon and his practice seem really decent to me. And yes my rebuilt knee is probably the best joint in my body. :embarrassed::(

Phil- This snow map is for you. The NWS/Taunton,MA office has been a pretty reliable predictor of snowfall accumulations this Season.

Ed- Thank you for sharing. My ? regarding the calendar was a "quality of life" question; it can be a "Red Flag" as to the "quality" of the facility's "environment." The facility really seems to be trying to connect with and involve your Mom. Your description of Mom is familiar.:( Depression is a sad reality and part of the aging process. "Happy pills" are not a total "cure all" for what's going on.

"... Now a woodchuck/groundhog? I have no love for those destructive animals. I'd go for the .22 first..."- Drew If I ever do roll my tractor it will be a groundhog's hole that tips me.

My + thoughts, wishes, and prayers for all. We all need them.

I see that lists my start date as 3/20/2000. How many remember the name of TBN before it became Tractorbynet? I bought my Kubota B2710 on 8/12/1999 (the date it was delivered), but I had a B7100 before that and started using TBN's predecessor for information way back then. And dial up Internet America was a bit slow out in the country.:laughing:

It was Kubota???? Something. Kubota sent Muhammad a stop using our name letter when he was 14 years old.

It’s going to snow later today, I hope the roads don’t get too bad. Ellen and I are headed to NC and plan returning around 7-8 tonight. Right in the predicted bullseye of the storm.
I’d hate to get stranded at a hotel...;)
Especially the "no tell motel".

Measured 9" of snow, but it has compacted, its wet and heavy. Still coming down. Im too busy with work work to go push it.

My camera that came yesterday works. Different brand IP camera with zoom. I thought it was PTZ, but just zoom. Its a dahua camera rebranded. Same menus, etc, works on my dahua recorder.
Its actually for our church, but i do all the installs, so i preset and configure them up at home first.
